User list in Bonita Administrator Application

This page explains what a user with the Administrator profile can see and do about the users (of the organization) in Bonita Administrator Application.

Here is a view of this page: Administrator user list Portal

View user’s detailed information

In the user list, the Administrator can view the users currently active in the deployed organization.
By clicking in the Inactive radio button, they can also access the users who have been deactivated. "Inactive" means that they can no longer log in Bonita Portal nor any Bonita application. To view the user’s detailed information:

  1. Go to Organization/Users

  2. In the row of the user, click on the View user details icon

  3. Click on the sections in the menu on the left to read all the user’s detailed information

Live Update

The Administrator can Live Update a user:

  • create

  • deactivate

  • edit information

  • edit memberships

  • edit profiles

Live updating is only in case of an issue to solve temporarily. We strongly encourage the modification of the organization to be conducted in Bonita Studio so it can be shared and versioned with the whole project, or through the LDAP synchronizer if the organization is located in an external system.

Create a user

Reminder: do not create a user with the same login and password as the platform administrator nor the technical user.

  1. Go to Organization/Users

  2. Click on Create

  3. In the modal window, enter the username, password (twice), first name and last name of the new user

  4. Click Create to confirm the creation

Deactivate a user

  1. Go to Organization/Users

  2. In the row of the user, click on the Deactivate user icon

  3. In the confirmation modal window, check that this deactivation is safe, and click on Deactivate

Reactivating a user can be done through the same mechanism from the "Inactive" user list.

Edit user’s information

  1. Go to Organization/Users

  2. In the row of the user, click on the View user details icon

  3. Stay in the "General information" section, or click on one of the other sections in the menu on the left:

    • Profiles/Memberships (see below)

    • Business card

    • Personal information

    • Custom information

  4. Edit the information

  5. Click on the Update […​] button of the section

Edit user’s memberships

For example, "Assistant"(role) of "Human Resources"(group).

  1. Go to Organization/Users

  2. In the row of the user, click on the View user details icon

  3. Click on Profiles/Memberships

  4. To add a membership, click on +, select a role and a group, and click on Add or to delete an existing membership, click on the Delete icon, and in the confirmation modal window, confirm the deletion if it is safe

Edit user profiles

The rights of a user are defined by mapping the user to a profile. To map a user to a profile:

  1. Go to Organization/Profiles

  2. In the row of a profile, click on the Show mapping with organization icon

  3. In the "Mapping with Users" section, click on the Edit user mapping icon

  4. Start typing the name of the user to add
